About
I appreciate your interest in artisan jewelry and handmade works of art.
Manipulating metal fascinates me endlessly. A perfect day begins with dropping in at RebusWorks for coffee with a friend before going to my studio to play with fire.
The majority of my training took place at Penland School of Craft, Pullen Arts Center, and NCSU's Crafts Center. Since 2021, I've been a member of Antfarm Studios in Raleigh's Historic Boylan Heights.
Currently Exhibiting Artist at Oberlin Regional Library,
Nov. 8, 2023 thru Jan. 10, 2024
